Winter Refit at Burgess Marine Portchester

Burgess Marine has this month launched the 57m Swiftship MY Tacanuya, which opens up capacity for another major Superyacht refit this winter.

This follows the recently completed works in the UK onboard MY Force India and finalising the lengthy refit of MY Tacanuya; the vessel has now been delivered to the Owners Team and is enroute to the Mediterranean.

Nicholas Warren, the CEO of Burgess Marine comments; “Our facility in Portchester is perfect for a winter refit. The devalued pound coupled with our exceptional British craftsmanship really does make our refit solution both great value for money and well worth further consideration. To see what can be done you’ve only got to look at MY Lady A, exhibiting here at the Monaco Yacht Show with Edmiston; she’s a superb example of what can be achieved by bringing your Superyacht to the UK for a major refit”.

Lord Sugar, the Owner of MY Lady A comments; “Refitting Lady A at home in the UK was a real, genuine, pleasure. The team at Burgess Marine know their stuff and the quality of the end product is simply outstanding. Owners that have made their money in the UK should definitely consider spending it in the UK with the likes of Burgess Marine; British engineering and workmanship is something to be really very proud of - on the South Coast there’s the ‘know how’ and passion to make the most challenging refit a reality”.

Burgess Marine’s Portchester facility is adjacent to a 60m 1000T Rolls Royce syncrolift facility and is located at the top of Portsmouth Harbour.

The Burgess Marine team are attending the Monaco Yacht Show and MY Lady A can be viewed at the show via Edmiston.
